Remember that the Brits bailed out RBS the way the States bailed out AIG.

This is bogus, not bonus:

The directors of Royal Bank of Scotland are threatening to resign if the government stops them paying bonuses of £1.5bn to staff in its investment arm.

What’s the big deal?

They did a great job running RBS into the ground. If they walk, they won’t be able to do it again.

    I read somewhere that Britian was breaking up the “too big to fail” banks, so they couldn’t pull the same crap again.

    I don’t get it, how anyone in the position the bankers are in, feeling they need huge pay or bonuses. How do they get the audacity?

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
